What is the most powerful weapon in RuneScape?

Answer 1

The most powerful weapons of RuneScape technically is the Godswords. Bandos GS, Zamorak GS, Saradomin GS, and Armadyl GS. RuneScape guides and such say that AGS or Armadyl Godsword is the most powerful because it's special can hit under right conditions a 92. With Castle Wars Bracelet (in castle wars) I heard it can hit up to 103. Godswords all having the same stats including the mighty +132 strength bonus. It's just different hilts (Bandos, Zamorak, Saradomin, Armadyl) With different abilites. Bandos GS can weaken a players defence by the number it hit, for example: If you hit a 35 on another player it will lower their defence level by 35, if their defence is 50 its now 15. Zamorak GS's special works like Ice Barrage (Ancient Magiks 94 mage req). It freezes the enemy for 20 Seconds no matter what you hit, even if you hit 1. Saradomin GS works like Guthan's but SGS restores a bit of your pray points too. Despite both Bandos and Zamorak's specials using 100% of the special bar. Saradomin and Armadyl GS's specs only use 50% so you can get in 2 hits! Saradomin GS is the best for training methods because it heals you for the amount the spec hits just like Guthans. If you hit 43 with SGS spec it will heal you 43 Hitpoints and some of your prayer points (if using prayer). Armadyl GS is mainly used for its accuracy for high hits. ALL SPECS CAN FAIL. Armadyl GS also uses 50% of the special bar. It is mainly a PKing weapon for KOing other players. If your mostly training and doing GWD or God Wars Dungeon, or even PKING SGS is for you. 75 Attack Pures will mainly use AGS because they are 1 defence and AGS is really accurate for those 1 def pures and most of the time will hit high. AGS is also known for the "2 hit KO" which I've seen a lot and I've done it myself.

Before Godswords were released Abyssal Whip was leading in being the best weapon in game. For its speed, accuracy, and price. I still think that the Abby Whip is still the best weapon because for every 2-3 hits an Abyssal Whip hits you get 1 hit in with a Godsword. In my opinion if you're rich and picked up a Dragonic Visage or even have a DFS or DragonFire Sheild. Abyssal Whip and DragonFire Shield is better than a Godsword. For the price of the Abyssal Whip it is very convenient.

Saradomin Sword is believed to be one of the best weapons in the game because it shared the same speed as a Whip or a D Scimi, and sharing the same strength bonus as the whip +82. Saradomin Sword is NOT A GODSWORD. Yes obtainable from GWD it is fairly cheaper and not as "strong" as the Godswords. It has a 2 hitting special which can even KO a player and 70 attack pures LOVE this weapon. It is the best weapon technically for training strength but not all players can afford or don't want to pay millions for it.

Dragon Scimitar is also one of the best weapons in the game because of the popularity amongst it. Dragon Scimitar with its speed and accuracy and only required Monkey Madness quest done and 60 attack it is a great all-around weapon. It technically is the best Strength training weapon because its average price is 100k. +66 str bonus is really good. It is THE ULTIMATE WEAPON for 60 attack pures because they can combo with DDS or Dragon Claws.

The best weapon is mainly based on the style of your character build.
